trust for buying a suppressor?

[ndh87]

Im thinking about getting a suppressor for my 22s. I was hoping someone here could fill me in on how you purchase NFA items by setting up a trust. I hear its much easier and sometimes quicker to do it this way.

You'd probably want to consult with a lawyer to make sure your trust is absolutely bulletproof. Nothing worse than having your stuff taken later because you accidentally leave something out.

And yes, such a thing can happen. Some guy on SilencerTalk had a form get kicked back with a note saying his trust appeared to be invalid.

It is quicker in that you don't have to get the chief LEO sign off, or do the fingerprinting. However it does not make it any quicker from BATF's end. Form 4's haven't been coming back quicker due to being a trust. Some have actually been taking longer. BATF is looking closer at all the trusts they are getting for validity.

Woofers,

Right now they are taking a bit longer because of the back log. But pre-election trusts were often 2-3 times quicker then personal ownership. Also trusts have advantages to them, with a trust, any trustee can take possession of the weapon, and you can modify the trust to add and remove trustees at a later date.

While with personal ownership not even the owners spouse can take possession of the firearm. I think that when a Sheriff (not a deputy, but an actual elected sheriff who can sign off on his own form, and have a deputy do the finger prints and photograph) uses a trust, that shows which is the best route to go.

Has anyone actually used the "guntrustlawyer.com"? I have contacted them and understand that their trust has certain advantages to the "Willmaker" and "Quicken" trusts or the other "free" ones floating around the web. I don't want anyone to share the intellectual property purchased from them, just give me a review of how happy you are with their product and their service (i.e. instructions on how to use the trust).

VR,

Ryan

I used a local attorney. I don't trust a Quicken trust, as they are not set up or reviewed for their applicability to NFA purposes. The local attorney is a firearms collector himself, and charged me $375.

Don't use Quicken or another program. Get an Attorney. You get what you pay for and you don't want to screw around with this.
